You will be required to undertake research in the hardware development and evaluation in order to achieve the translation of the clinical OCT prototype into clinical practice. Applicants should have a PhD in a relevant scientific discipline, for example, optics, physics, computer science, and electrical engineering. Relevant knowledge and practical experience of OCT is essential. Personal attributes such as excellent communication, verbal and in writing, excellent time management skills and the ability to work within a multidisciplinary team will also be essential to this project. You will be expected to be flexible and responsive to the changing challenges associated with this role. Candidates should be focused on achieving goals and work well with minimal supervision.
